Description

1913 Rolls-Royce 40/ 50 HP Silver Ghost
London to Edinburgh Tourer. On the 7th July 1913 Chassis Number 2500E was dispatched to coach builders White-Coleman of Camden Town, London and was fitted with tourer coachwork for its first owner A. Carlish of Hove, Sussex. In 1971 the car was found in a somewhat tired state. What remained of the coachwork was removed and the driving chassis was delivered to Rivers-Fletcher Raahauge for restoration in 1974. After completion it was handed over the the master himself Mr Graham Neale who built one of the most exquisite tourer body you could wish to see on a pre first world war London to Edinburgh chassis that has the more compact fire wall and tapered bonnet with narrower light weight wind cheating coachwork. The attention to detail is a delight to see. The first owner requested Warland duel rim wooden wheels and I am glad to say that the car is still to that specification today. If you love Edwardian Rolls-Royce motor cars I would strongly advise you come to see this car to fully appreciate how lovely it is.
